I wish the characters had a voice line or two about it

"The fuck is that? On the ceiling." To draw attention to it for players

Very specific situation to trigger them

#

They share the same rarity as wall sacks voicelines when they spit on you (you disabling them)

#

Or even rarer the “let there be light” voicelines

Another proof people in general have been conditioned to spoonfed content which makes their brains as functional as an umbrella during a hurricane

This is not proof of that

Nah, some gamers just pay attention in general. Its simple as that. I don't think the games made them dumber, but rather the opposite: the tutorials have been made to be fool-proof, or at least as close as they can be to it. Some games do it better than others, of course, as usual.

And then you watch someone like Game Grumps and see Arin play a game, READ the tutorial and then forget it immediately upon closing the pop up and go "WTF am i supposed to do?!" while shitting on the game for not explaining things, and then you realise what developers have to work with.
Than god at least Dan pays some attention and will occasionally be like "Didn't the game said something about doing X?..."

Actually lets be real here

Who looks up even in real life?

#

What for?

livid heath
#

Naw

half hornet
#

Do you like concrete ceilings? Clouds?

livid heath
#

You looking up

#

Is the last thing you do

half hornet
#

I only pay attention to clouds when they're worringly dark and keep blocking out the sun.

livid heath
#

You look around first and then at ur feet

#

And the. Lastly even before looking up

#

You take another lap around ur surroundings

#

Then you look up

half hornet
#

Do humans even have it in them to look up?

We don't have any airborne predators do we?

Reminds me of a video from USA marine training and the guy (the teacher) was just camping like balcony on top of a corridor or something like that. People were coming out from under him and no one looked there so he just kept getting free "kills"

#

This is a real problem even for the military apparently. They have to drill it into you to check everything or you die.

#

If you were to be ever killed like that in a video game you would be raging because it would be cheap and unfair. Which it is.

Proves to be a big advantage

Lore accurate explanation for why Titanfall pilots are so OP

Could also take starship troopers for example

#

They stand no chance

half hornet
#

Oh god, don't even

livid heath
#

But when they stand on walls

#

They literally become a fire wall that holds out 80% of the whole bug invasions

#

We are yet to get lore accurate ST content. Except for that one CGI anime thing, but i heard the story is crap.

#

Only time they loose

Is when the bugs get suit up with jacked out stims and artillery’s

I should watch that anyway...

I watched the OG one like 20 times

Don't care for sequels though

Tried to watch 2 and it was horrific

Didn't even try with 3, i'm gonna pretend that one doesn't exist

No bug fighting

There was also this one ancient animated TV show... Aged like milk visual wise, but lord it was cool. The opening alone is chef's kiss.

@coarse berry
it was previously possible to do it with bots with the busted sniper sentry, but now u gon have to remove them and deal with chargers which is not soo much fun
Reactor itself there is a chance that code 2 hunt fails and have to re do
code 3 and 4 tank has to die asap

last gust
#

sniper sentry is still fine for r7e1 purposes

#

I'd probably bring 2, as well as bio and foam, in a 4man

#

probably the most annoying thing about solo + 3 bots prior to the arena would be getting a workable fight on the tanks

#

the mixed scan isn't that bad

atomic escarp
#

was talking about how r7 sniper made tha arena easier with bots

dry dagger
#

@atomic escarp AH ok ok cool ah ok yeah ok.
Just wanted to know the optimal strat.

atomic escarp
dry dagger
#

I've tried PE on R7C3 with bots like over a dozen times at least and it generally falls apart when searching for Overload bulkhead key or actually getting into and clearting overload.

atomic escarp
#

giving you plenty of breathing room

#

you have 3 doors that you can use to clear enemies from behind

#

close mine and kill the room ahead

#

u can do the blood door without getting enemies from the error

dry dagger
#

Did you manage to loot during the survival phase or was it straight rush?

atomic escarp
#

you can loot

#

rushing will get you killed

#

let bots pickup ammo

#

and keep tool on you

#

for mines and for sentries

#

u need the tool from first and bulkhead key zone

#

to sustain yourself to ovl first zone

#

u can grab ammo from there and leave tool for later

#

do the uplink

#

if u finish u basically are 90% done

#

2nd uplink wont be hard

#

you can go for the optional zone as well if u have more than 12 mins

#

if not straight for 2nd zone get res from there and terminal

#

tank you will have to fight there or cfoam him with trips which i did with 4 leading to extract (assuming you finished before timer hits 1 minute mark)

half hornet
#

can you even clear R7C3 PE with bots? doesn't double uplink technically softlocks you or its possible?

#

I guess you just have to waste time running between terminals... Not sure how viable that is

atomic escarp
#

well i did

#

and the double uplink isnt bad

#

its only 3 code each

#

once first uplink is done u are good for the rest of the lvl

narrow gulch
#

could cheese uplinks with logs

atomic escarp
#

what

coarse berry
atomic escarp
#

yes

#

2nd uplink

#

u get chargers or giant chargers

#

nothing too bad

half hornet
#

"Or"? Is it RNG or you're not sure?

atomic escarp
#

rng

#

sometimes a mix

half hornet
#

Hm.

last gust
#

it can certainly be fought, being overtime in r7c3 is not a death sentence by any means

last gust
#

game doesn't require unbroken presence of a player at each terminal for uplink to remain in play

#

first uplink in r7c3ov is very doable by one person because the possible terminals are all pretty close together

#

for the duo we settled on one person defending while one person ran back and forth

#

second uplink is dicier, you can either get two terminals in the same room or two terminals on opposite ends of the zone from one another

#

for duo we sentried the zone entrance and both hopped on terminals for uplink

#

for solo with bots you'd have to run back and forth, which is unpleasant

atomic escarp
#

soo far ive had same room uplink which is nice

#

say you got unlucky the waves are lot less dense so its not a big deal

deft kiln
#

XD

atomic escarp
atomic escarp

You type LOGS, then it will show you the avaible logs for example auto_gen_status.log
Then you will type READ AUTO_GEN_STATUS.LOG

atomic escarp

#

You can pre type everything in then cancel the loading animation and skip all the waiting. Getting no wave spawns if you do it fast enough

atomic escarp
#

meowdy

atomic escarp
frail horizon
#

its that uplink exclusive or can it be used for anything with logs

#

or can it be used for even more

deft kiln
#

Uplink exclusive mainly cause it writes the info on your screen

winter wharf
#

logs also tell you what zone objective items spawn in, and if you've done the mapping you can infer exactly where the shit spawns

#

:)

prisma zodiac
#

Which basically doesnt change anything for normal gameplay florkShrug1 exception being stuff like r5e1 charger error key hunt

tough atlas
#

I've no idea if it works like that for every uplink tbh because I never did it

atomic escarp
winter wharf
#

no idea

#

afaik it doesn't work for reactor codes

atomic escarp
#

💀

#

no r2d2 cheese

prisma zodiac
#

it only quickens the process

Long uplinks like r4c1 will realistically still spawn stuff

marsh tinsel
#

Let's talk about ALT://R6. What do you expect from it? I want to add shokers to C1, D1, D2 and D4; Log changes, more plot details; Less fog)

atomic escarp
#

difficulty was watered down in r6 so i wouldnt expect it to be anything special even if they do buff it

last gust
#

I could see strikers in r6c1 alpha survivals

#

since r7b3ex survivals were a little better received

atomic escarp
last gust
#

I don't expect them to change r6b2ex, but they might give us better tiles for the uplinks or remove the zone lock as they did in r7b2 uplinks

half hornet
last gust
#

though they didn't remove zone lock on uplinks in r2c1 so eh

#

numerous places are automatically buffed by no r6 sniper

#

r6c2ex for example

atomic escarp
#

i think its still good enough for it

#

you wont need ammo after mom really and there is still ammo ahead

#

it was nice to pop 2 waves with 1 use but oh well

last gust
#

c2ex was a highlight of r6 imo

#

the main isn't anything amazing, but I think c2 pulled its weight overall

#

c3ov is again one that I think gets buffed by no longer having r6 sniper

#

one thing it does better than r7c3 is actually send large biomass waves at you, rather than just a recurring wave of 2-3 bigs

#

they could add a side zone for main-only completes to r6c3 similar to the main-only side zone in r7c3

#

secondary could stand to be buffed somehow, but I don't think they'll do it

atomic escarp
last gust
#

what do you mean?

atomic escarp
#

it being highlight of the rundown

last gust
#

I said "a", not "the"

#

I like r6d3, but I think the "only good thing in r6 is d3" take is an exaggeration

#

that said I don't think I'd change anything about r6d3, aside from pulling some ammo out of overload

#

I doubt they'll remove any checkpoints from r6d1, even though they probably should

#

one thing I'd like to see is the entry to d2ex moved to the other side of mommy zone

atomic escarp
#

they have to right? 4 checkpoints is a lot

atomic escarp
last gust
#

it would be, but that zone is so cool and once groups have figured the rest of the level out they tend to stop going in there

atomic escarp
#

fair enough

#

i hope they add n change some stuff in r6d4

marsh tinsel
#

Sleeping snatchers would be a nice change in D4) There are sounds of sleeping snatchers in the files

last gust
#

r6d4 rework into r6e1 is still the wild out-there hope that I'm willing to entertain

#

almost certainly won't happen, but it's cool to think about

#

d4 is such a great level concept

marsh tinsel
#

Agreed

prisma zodiac
last gust
#

uplink waves spawn within zone

prisma zodiac
#

they do in r7b2 :|

#

you can spawn block them perfectly on 2nd uplink (if small room) where as this wouldnt work if they could spawn outside the zone

last gust
#

oh, I heard from multiple people before who tried to spawn-block the second uplink that they got spawns outside the zone

#

okay maybe I got bad info

prisma zodiac
#

ive recommended it to absolute newbs and did it myself ~3 times (not that i care much about the level)

last gust
#

hm, maybe they just got 1-room spawns next to the zone entrance

#

I've never tried it myself

#

anyway I'll take your word for it, r7b2 uplinks are zone locked as usual

prisma zodiac
#

With the setup for small room term spawn
1 in room, 1 south, north and east, it has them blocked on west, north, east but south east

It would also not block the west outside zone spawns but does so

last gust
#

I wasn't told what spawn block setup they used, so I can't really comment further

atomic escarp
#

is double tap rifle even good

#

yes if you hit headshots

fallow wasp
#

I appreciate r6d4 for its concept

#

Very interesting level

#

However I do not appreciate being teleported halfway inside a giant

dry dagger
#

@atomic escarp How would you kite chargers and big chargers in that room? There's not much to work with.

As for the desert part, I've tried going onto the spire and found that I still got licked. Idk maybe I did it wrong.

wary olive
#

For r7e1 arena scan?

dry dagger
#

yeah

wary olive
#

You can loop them using the terrain

#

Easier said than done though

#

Also with chargers it helps knowing their behavior lick -> punch repeat

#

I don't remember if staggering a charger that is trying to punch you will make it change to trying to lick you though maybe someone will chime in

atomic escarp
#

And for the desert you have to go on top of the shed
If you jump from the box to the left corner of the door frame U can get on top

#

You also can use tanks from blood door to spawn cap

dry dagger
#

@atomic escarp How would you use the tanks to force spawn cap when you need to get the cell? Have someone else pull them back into large dark room?...

atomic escarp
#

Kite the tanks around spawn

atomic escarp
#

replaying r7 lvls again feels weird after seeing how the previous rundowns packed a punch

Just stealth thé room if it goes up then its guns blazing

Who will go to gamescom, please ask the right questions to the developers)

#

If anyone asks for more fog again, that will be the end of it

tough badger

Everyone better ask for more fog

deft kiln
#

i wish there was more liquid effects

marsh tinsel
tough badger
#

So much

prisma zodiac
#

ill go and ask it again peepoEvil

marsh tinsel
#

You do realize that the developers might not get the joke and actually make more fog, right?) We're all going to die

#

We need a hero who will ask to do less fog. Then we will be saved

prisma zodiac
#

Well, my actual question was whether theyd add more environmental hazards like fog

They joked about us wanting more fog due to it

#

i honestly appreciate good fog levels, dont think theres been a single one i disliked much recently

marsh tinsel
#

Fog is a good mechanic, IF in moderation. Not every level

dark rover
#

I feel like if the game was polished up a bit it would be really good

#

Too much fog is really annoying but it had its purpose

prisma zodiac
#

or rather if the turbine is needed for long periods of time/walking around

#

see r5b3

marsh tinsel
#

Secondary task R5D1 is a good example of how not to do it

tough badger
#

i dislike the full respawn shadow zones 500x more than the fog part of r5d1sec

#

i will at least give you that r5 had an absurd amount of specifically turbine diving into baja blast

kind swan
#

Several have light fog

#

Which clouds up your flashlight a bit

#

But visibility otherwise is clear

marsh tinsel
#

Yeah, I know, for example, there's a light fog on R5A1

#

I sent you a screenshot

#

Isn't that nice to watch?

kind swan
#

It be like that

#

But

#

It ain't bad

marsh tinsel
#

As far as I'm concerned, the less fog the better. As a mechanic, it can be used multiple times. But not on every level.

kind swan
#

R7B1 be like.

#

Wait

#

No

#

It was R7B2

marsh tinsel
#

I have no complaints about R6 and R7, everything is balanced there. But not R5

daring pilot
#

Not everything is balanced in R7

#

Or R6

kind swan
#

R7B2 was when people were like."AH THE RETURN OF R5 FOG"

marsh tinsel
#

I'm talking about the fog

daring pilot
#

R6 fog was honestly too weak in retrospect

#

Specifically looking at D3

#

*2

marsh tinsel
#

I didn't find the R7B2 annoying. It was atmospheric. One level in Rundown should be like this

kind swan
daring pilot
#

Yeah I guess you did almost always have turbine or reps

kind swan
#

Or commands to lower it

daring pilot
#

Yeah, that was my problem with the bottom right D2 wing

kind swan
daring pilot
#

You could completely nullify fog in the alarm

#

That level is just tedious

#

Could’ve been shorter

kind swan
#

Flashlights on enemies in the fog appear with a red outline

#

Which is a visual bug

daring pilot
#

Yeah R7B2 is just waaaaaayy too long

#

Not even like good long either

#

R7C2 is good long imo

#

Because it’s cool and it innovates the way you retrieve the 2 cells each time

#

B2 is “hey here are a fuckton of foggy alarms/stealth zones”

kind swan
#

My first PE clear of R7C2 was hell.

daring pilot
#

Also the second uplink is either easy as shit or complete hell

kind swan
#

Specifically Secondary

marsh tinsel
#

I love R7C2 because of teleportation

kind swan
#

when we did it. It was bugged and had flying and ground enemies at the same time.

#

And it casually had giant spawns too

#

3 man 1 bot

marsh tinsel
#

I thought that was the plan)

kind swan
#

Secondary is only supposed to be flyers

#

When you teleport and do scans

#

But we bugged it and had Both

daring pilot
#

Secondary is only flyers yeah

marsh tinsel
#

You probably went through Secondary first, then went through a cluster scan.

daring pilot
#

Did you do it after ALT R1 dropped?

kind swan
#

Which was why awhile back. People were weirded out about why I said it was harder than overload

daring pilot
kind swan
daring pilot
#

Secondary on that level is always last

daring pilot
#

Checkpoint?

kind swan
#

Could be

daring pilot
#

yeah probably

marsh tinsel
#

Secondary can open even if the last scan did not pass

daring pilot
#

Mixed pop bugs only started really happening when alts dropped

daring pilot
#

This is C2

kind swan
daring pilot
kind swan
#

Doc

#

Didn't believe me when I told em

daring pilot
#

Which part, the alarm or the uplink?

kind swan
#

Uplink

#

I ran that level a few more times. And all those groups did not believe me when I said it would be flyers only

daring pilot
#

Ah ok yeah that was a confirmed bug

#

They changed it to like 90% chargers later

kind swan
#

Imean. It was supposed to be like that

daring pilot
#

Idk if it was

#

Really?

kind swan
#

Maybe not the percentage

#

But majority chargers and a flyer every once in awhile

#

And then one of Pablo's kids

daring pilot
#

Hope that they integrate shockers into R6 main levels

kind swan
#

shrugs

#

Idk why they added snatcher in r5

#

When the introduction to them is in R7

daring pilot
#

Shockers in R6 main is ok to me, snatchers are probably gonna happen as well

#

I hope we get shockers during Kraken fight

kind swan
#

Shockers in r6 would probably be C/D levels tbh

daring pilot
#

Yeah

kind swan
#

God forbid they add snatchers to R6

daring pilot
#

Could see em in C1, D1-4

kind swan
kind swan
daring pilot
#

That was shockers

kind swan
daring pilot
#

Not snatchers

kind swan
marsh tinsel
#

Since 10 chambers had the entire month of July off, I'm guessing alt R6 won't come out until September at the earliest?

kind swan
#

tomorrow

daring pilot
#

I might play it

atomic escarp
#

make r6 hard 🙏

daring pilot
#

Of course the ALT i care about the most comes out after remnant 2

#

Also snatchers I could see being added to C3

#

Either intentionally or accidentally

#

Could also see em in D2, D4

kind swan
daring pilot
#

Kinda wish they hadn’t spoiled the snatchers in the trailer

daring pilot
kind swan
#

Imean. The trailer didn't show what the snatcher did iirc

daring pilot
#

I meant ALT R5 trailer

kind swan
#

Ah

#

Well it's 10cc

#

Not surprised

atomic escarp
daring pilot
#

I will

#

I mean they’d also thematically fit in R6C1

#

With the Tscan

atomic escarp
daring pilot
#

Also we’re gonna have scattergun so snatchers will literally become irrelevant

atomic escarp
#

i suffered enough in r5b4 with bots

daring pilot
#

that’s because you’re playing with bots and snatcher was only targeting you

kind swan
atomic escarp
#

why do snatchers dont attack bots

#

fucks aake

kind swan
#

Snatchers detect real men

daring pilot
#

You’ve got an altered perception of snatchers being super difficult because bots are shit at dealing with them

atomic escarp
#

everything downs me first

winter wharf
#

i've never really learnt to deal with snatchers well because I never play missions with them in

daring pilot
#

They don’t focus em, they can’t be grabbed

atomic escarp
daring pilot
daring pilot
#

If you were doing OVL

#

Oh wait checkpoint

atomic escarp

and the tentacles not going off the screen bug

atomic escarp
#

all in a single elevator drop

daring pilot
#

Even in the 4h snatchers should’ve run dry

atomic escarp
#

i wasnt even doing ovl

daring pilot
#

Ah ok lol

#

So just prep sequence retries

atomic escarp
#

just snatchers from rise equipment waves

atomic escarp
#

and mothers

daring pilot
#

Mothers???

atomic escarp
#

yes

daring pilot
#

Uhhh

#

Homie you broke the game

winter wharf
#

there's a mother in a zone where you get a key iirc

atomic escarp
#

if you fuck up a wave a mother spawns jn

winter wharf
#

no that's

atomic escarp
#

and a eepy mom

daring pilot
#

I’ve never seen that

winter wharf
#

not how it works

#

I swear to fuck that's now how it works

#

there is no way it spawns a mother as a punishment wave

daring pilot
#

Wait pachi do you think the birther in 205 woke up?

atomic escarp
#

then how do moms spawn in

daring pilot
#

It’s literally across the wall

#

And I had similar thing happen in that level

#

No birther but a fuckton of children

atomic escarp
daring pilot
#

Came in really delayed

winter wharf
#

when I've done the mission, which wasn't recently, there was never a mother during the sequence, but the mother was always dead

daring pilot
#

Idk if there’s like a break in between 205 and the verification terminal zones on the left

#

But I’ve had this happen before

ornate crow
#

wait a second

#

how many snatchers are supposed to spawn during r7d1 ovl

daring pilot
#

Where the mom zones seem to wake up

ornate crow
#

we've always had to deal with like, three at once lmao

daring pilot
ornate crow
#

1

daring pilot
#

:)

ornate crow
#

good one

daring pilot
#

Yeah I never beat D1 normally

atomic escarp
#

wait so finally is a mother supposed to spawn in a wave in d1?

ornate crow
#

yeah same

#

that ovl is horseshit

#

sorry

daring pilot
#

I only beat it with the prepatch cheese

daring pilot
#

Never seen it

#

There’s one tank after last code goes in

atomic escarp
#

i remember fighting one

daring pilot
#

I’ve failed waves many times on that level

#

Never seen a birther

atomic escarp
ornate crow
#

you might've woken one up in the side zones

atomic escarp
daring pilot
#

Either ur game bugged, or it seems that the side zone tends to wake up bc of some weird sound barrier shit

atomic escarp
#

i think one just woke up

#

from the side sones

daring pilot
#

Yeah me too

#

It SHOULDNT

atomic escarp
#

zones

daring pilot
#

but well this is GTFO

atomic escarp

even ones i was in

so u just rolled an unlucky seed where the birther was close enough to wake up from this bug

atomic escarp

and my flashlight was getting stuck on walls

daring pilot

whole game started to fall apart

so game bugged probably

and they obviously stated that it will release after the ALT rundowns O.o ?

Imagine they do Alt R7

#

Just buy time

atomic escarp
#

they won't do alt r7

kind swan
#

Probably not

#

Doesn't mean they won't take just as long

#

I wonder if r8 will have checkpoints

atomic escarp
#

most likely

fallow wasp
#

It would be hilarious if 10 chambers pulled a fast one and released altR6 with no checkpoints

atomic escarp
#

today i learned that ischeckpoint = false is a blessing

fallow wasp
#

And then remove checkpoints from r7

#

Turns out it was all a ploy to get people interested who weren’t because of huge progress loss

atomic escarp

that would be the ultimate reverse card play

@broken scarab are you guys going to have like r6 alt at gamescom or something

similar to how at that one gaming thing, 10cc had a booth where you could play an early version of r2

next add 3x r6d1

|| what am i supposed to do at the 2 terminals in r5c3 when one asks for the password that you get from a terminal further in, and then the two terminals in that main room with the sort-of reactor thing that asks for a password from the other terminal||

a few nights ago we had a really nice, clean run, and then died because we couldnt figure out what to do at the end

Uplink connect Ip term 1

You will also need the password from the terminal in the next zone

yeah we got that, and then got totally confused lol

#

while getting peppered by smalls and a hybrid i think

deft kiln

Maybe in guides and reviews

we had never encountered that objective before

Mostly like an uplink with a catch

The codes are found in a terminal log

Once you understand the concept it ain’t anything you can’t do

@winter wharf first 2 codes werent bad
code 3 was a nightmare, almost wiped trying to kill the 4 moms, after that things slightly stabilized
code 4 was bit of a fk you moment cell was way deep in the zone but found resources which prolly saved me from running out with low ammo on bots
code 5 was quite easy, grabbed the code without triggering the zone, was first terminal and had a 4 use ammo and got out of there
code 6 was a tough one, first room had few giant shadows toward the front but not so bad, the 2nd room was empty had only 2 shadow scouts which made code grab easy but back tracking was quite hard, could have done 1 less phase but got out with fair amount of resources

#

6th attempt at secondary was the one

winter wharf
#

Nice, and for tank error I guess you used mines/sentries for damage

atomic escarp
#

tanks killed with sniper mostly, sentries/mines were for alarms

#

and for last tank + pmom fight

atomic escarp
#

@icy meteor for mom zone popped first mom with a trip and sniper but the other moms birthed almost right away
ive already set up 2 sniper sentries crossfiring the bridge zone
cfoam nades to help repell the babies and trickle into the rest of the moms although i almost died trying to get the last mom but managed to survive thanks to bots

quick question

#

what order do we do in r5c2

#

overload then second or second then overload

#

i remember doing thunderdom first

#

but idk where is the thunderdom

wary olive
#

The order doesn't really matter but thunderdome is overload

livid heath
#

any u want

#

ppl like doing secondary before overload

smoky bridge
#

just do the harder one first, so you dont waste time doing secondary if you fuck up

broken scarab
#

That is an interesting discussion, might snag that for weekly discussions

half hornet
broken scarab
plush basin
#

I think its interesting for R5C2 in particular

#

but for most levels there is pretty much just a "correct" answer

#

heck, a lot of levels force you to do it a specific way anyway

half hornet
#

Personally i just see it as a lampshading of the fact that there is indeed no pattern or any distinguishing properties to the secondary overload brothers which i personally find to be an issue. Had a lengthy debate with the lads about it... Literally yesterday? Maybe 2 days ago? Why not just call them Secondary A and Secondary B at that point? And some levels don't even give you a choice - the playthrough route is hard coded with keys and what not.

For specifics levels though? Yeah, sure. You'll need a lot of different discussions though.

atomic escarp
#

it would be an interesting discussion if you were able to do the sectors in any order but with different outcomes or negative perks

#

as artek said most lvls have one clear way

#

doing something any other way would most likely hinder you more than the negative side of the finished sector does anyway

#

r4c3 for example you can do ovl first but that means you get to do secondary with an error going which just ends up in a wipe

tough atlas
#

There's no R4B2 Overload, there's Main only, Secondary and Main, or PE

#

Same for R5B2

#

Bizarre choice tbh

atomic escarp
#

it would be very interesting and refreshing if you can do objectives in different order that brings something else to the table

#

food for thought

#

r8 please 🙏

livid heath
tough atlas
#

I think that sectors ultimately end up going either the "map X with Y hazard now" or just another set of challanges that feel usually not really melded with the Main sector

atomic escarp
#

yeah it they are to have different ways to do objectives it must not be counter intuitive

#

doing main secondary makes ovl harder in some aspect but doing main ovl makes secondary take a different playstyle or different path

#

doesnt have to be main first

#

but you get the point

hallow lark
#

Main-Overload-Sec (no Surge BUT fog will take over ur vision)
Overload-Main-Sec (Surge, little time for Secondary, but no visual issue)

Got to the fucking apex door on KDS deep on a blind run with one buddy, died in 2nd last surge scan 😵‍💫

livid heath
coarse berry
#

yup

#

two bots.

#

door for the surge got broken by giants so we didn't have it, and one shotgun sentry + two bozos with hel shotties wasn't enough binoSuffer

livid heath
#

The hel rifle

#

Is goated

coarse berry
#

we had helshot + sniper on me, helshot + HAR on buddy, both bots with carbines and verutas

#

but boths can't really use the veruta properly, maybe arb would be better on them

livid heath
coarse berry
#

mines on me, shotgun sentries on buddy + 1 bot, and bot bio

#

shot sentries were absolutely mulching everything but we had ran dry by surge, used one on blood door which was bad idea

livid heath
#

Last apex door was it?

coarse berry
#

yeah the class IV surge

livid heath
#

Ah

#

You have 3 doors

#

To mine up tho

#

And learning from spawn push by jish

#

Oh i forgor

#

Its purple scan

coarse berry
#

agony

livid heath
#

But it is really simple

#

You might not even need the added up sentries

#

Just foam to buy time@and clear on ladders tho

coarse berry
#

we are now debating doing cell skip to save time and make the error not be giants, but cell skip with two AI sounds treacherous

livid heath
#

Get the better bots mod

#

Def doable cell skip

coarse berry
#

i want to do it vanilla though

#

the bragging rights

#

immense

#

also don't mods seperate progression?

livid heath
#

No

#

Mod or not

#

It is still vanilla

atomic escarp
#

me getting all cosmetics with Cconsole PirateSimon

livid heath
#

Until you do custom rundowns

#

Then it is not vanilla

coarse berry
#

ohhh I assumed you couldn't run any mods at all or it seperated progression

#

what happens if you have the cosmetic unlocker and then beat a new level?

livid heath
#

You gain nothing

#

Because there is literally nothing

coarse berry
#

yeah shouldve figured that I suppose

livid heath
#

But

#

Using mods does not affect any progress

coarse berry
#

i dunno. feel like the bragging rights from doing it genuinely vanilla would be immense

livid heath
#

So you’re cool with that

coarse berry
#

I could sneer at all my homies

livid heath
#

Nah

#

Even the best use mods

#

But just to randomize

#

So you having a handicap by using dumbass bots is for sure allowed to bragging rights

coarse berry
#

I was cheesing them a bit

livid heath
#

Cheese?

coarse berry
#

if you deactivate + respawn them both at the same times sometimes they'll just restart their stats with ~55% ammo and ~67% tool ❤️

#

never gave a bot a single use of ammo ❤️

livid heath
#

Oh talking anout cheese

#

You can skip the alarm on shadow zone

#

If you pull the door and deactivate error alarm

coarse berry
#

?

#

don't you need the key?

#

unless its cell skip but I thought cell skip avoids that area entirely

livid heath
#

Yes

#

But there is no key

#

It is a pulled class 4 shadow alarm

coarse berry
#

to shut down error though

#

you can't re-use terminals to shut down errors can you

#

also that shadow alarm is like a meme, its probably the easiest part of the level

livid heath
#

No

#

Thats why

#

You wana pull the alarm

#

And then deactivate

coarse berry
#

so you keep charger error going on way to shadow? doesn't sound worth

livid heath
#

No

coarse berry
#

we had da crap ton of resources by then

livid heath
#

You pull

#

The error deactivate terminal is right on the same room as the sec door to shadow zone

coarse berry
#

OHHH.

#

it's in the same fuckin place

atomic escarp
#

you deactivate both the charger error and the shadow alarm

coarse berry
#

i had somehow forgotten that

#

that would help a bit

livid heath
#

So you literally stop all of em

atomic escarp
#

same how you deactivate both the giant error and the cell door alarm one

atomic escarp
coarse berry
#

are you not supposed to have the giant error during surge?

atomic escarp
#

if you have cleared tank and mom zone

#

you can go back to the first zone and use a terminal there to stop alarm

coarse berry
#

we accidentally pulled the tank so we killed it but didn't wanna fuck with the moms

atomic escarp
#

after pulling alarm for cell door

coarse berry
#

the disinfect one? even if it's been used prior?

#

or is this just cell skip

livid heath
#

No

coarse berry
#

wait no not cell skip

atomic escarp
#

you can do it without cell skip

coarse berry
#

my brain shutting down.

livid heath
#

Were talking about no cell skip

coarse berry
#

what terminal lets you stop it?

atomic escarp
#

the alarm door before surge

atomic escarp
livid heath
#

Yup

#

Thats the one

coarse berry
atomic escarp
#

thats why you need to clear the zones for it

coarse berry
#

the one on the elevated platform in the initial zone?

atomic escarp
#

yeah

coarse berry
#

jesus. why tf does it let you do that

#

I wanna do thazt

#

thats worth killing the two moms

atomic escarp
#

yeah it stops both giant error and the class 5 alarm

coarse berry
#

fuck

#

we could've prepped for the surge properly

atomic escarp
#

or surge as well if u wanna pull that

coarse berry
#

dude if you could pull that off for surge...

atomic escarp
#

yeah

coarse berry
#

why does that terminal let you do that?

atomic escarp
#

you can let many giants stack so spawn cap pull surge and deactivate all 3

atomic escarp
coarse berry
#

does it notify you or something, that it's a thing?

#

like biohazard cleared terminal funny power unlocked?

atomic escarp
#

you dont have to clear the zone for that terminal

coarse berry
#

just makes the run easier?

atomic escarp
#

when you pull the cell alarm door it changes it to that terminal

#

yeah

coarse berry
#

oh god it's intentional.

#

i thought the next terminal was after surge

#

i swear I remember us querying it and seeing it was after surge

atomic escarp
#

thats for the error one

#

as i said the alarm after cell changes it to the one in the beginning

coarse berry
#

good heavens.

#

this is absolutely beatable with a duo

livid heath
#

No bots

atomic escarp
#

100%

livid heath
#

No bots

coarse berry
#

i wish we were -that- good at this fuckin game lol

livid heath
#

Same

coarse berry
#

i didn't really think about the fact that deactivate alarms, well

#

deactivates...all. alarms

#

for the shadow room

livid heath
#

I wish i was more control when i see a tank

coarse berry
#

i was too worried about a sleeping tank so I didn't wanna blow away the remaining chargers

livid heath
#

Hitting tumors with hammer is so satisfying

coarse berry
#

the one time I knife killed a tank

#

I will never let that go

#

it didn't help that we didn't find a single lick of c-foam the whole time

#

i watched a run where they had multiple foam trips to keep the surge door shut and was just like "where the fuck was that"

atomic escarp
#

idk how unlucky you have been but in my run i got 2 cfoam nades and thats it

coarse berry
#

didn't get shit in my run

#

maybe we just got unlucky as hell

#

wonder if its worth bringing a foam launcher to try to seal the surge door?

livid heath
coarse berry
#

between scans

livid heath
#

And get scolded by my team mates

atomic escarp
#

unless you mean before alarm but its kinda not useful for the rest of the lvl

wary olive
#

where are you getting that being able to deactivate the giant error with the 1st terminal is intended to be a "reward"?

coarse berry
#

Blobbed it and ran back

atomic escarp
coarse berry
#

That is oddly nice of an e tier level

#

I think kds deep might be my favorite designed E level

atomic escarp
wary olive
#

how do you know that it was intended for the 1st terminal at the very beginning to be for deactivating

#

and not the terminal after the surge

atomic escarp
#

which again is also unnecessary

wary olive
#

you can deactivate the giant error after the surge though

coarse berry
wary olive
#

that terminal in that long room

coarse berry
#

Yeah but why would you

atomic escarp
wary olive
#

where are the dinosaurs

atomic escarp
#

or even deactivate the surge as well

wary olive
#

@nocturne flax @obtuse surge giant error being able to be deactivated with first terminal is intentional?

atomic escarp
#

the game literally says deactivate alarm on terminal X

#

who would they even put it there if it wasnt intentional

#

an oversight that didnt get fixed?

wary olive
#

the thing is in og r5e1 im pretty sure that it displayed the terminal number correctly (the terminal in the room after the surge) but you could still use the first terminal for some reason

atomic escarp
#

why would it be conflicting

coarse berry
#

Yeah it purposefully changes when you pull the door

#

Why, I have no idea

wary olive
#

what do u mean the cell alarm door

#

there is no error tied to that door

atomic escarp
#

the class 5 alarm door that requires a cell

wary olive
#

going back and looking it seems to be the same where pulling that alarm changes the display text

#

but the point is that i dont think that in any way supports the idea that it was intended for it to be that way

atomic escarp
#

why would they put it there then if it wasnt intended

#

they would have fixed it by now as well

#

the fact that they kept it even in the ALT is good enough to say so

wary olive
#

that is a funny joke

atomic escarp
#

take it how you will

coarse berry
#

It's a very cool feature no wonder they kept it
